Fully destructible environments is something I’m going to have trouble ever getting bored of, especially when it’s done in such an explosive manner. The fact that respawning is managed via turbo-boosted orbital drops -flattening the ground for meters around the point of impact – It’s just brilliant.

Anything else worth shouting about?

Stacking power-up effects feels like something that’s been missing from gaming for a long time, it’s great to see it back. There’s also 20 bosses included in the game, one for each of the levels… oh, and also, there’s five local multiplayer modes shipping with the game, that all look like really good fun. But, don’t take my word on it, just watch the trailer below.

When’s it due?

It’s all set for a Summer launch this year, when it will launch for PC. Mac & Linux versions should follow shortly afterwards.
